Plot.
Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time. These opening words of Kurt
Vonnegut's famous novel make an effective and short summary of a haunting,
funny film. For the screen, director George Roy Hill faithfully renders
Vonnegut's black anti-war comedy about Pilgrim (well played in a low key
by Michael Sacks), who survives the horrendous 1945 fire bombing of Dresden
then lives simultaneously in his past as a naïve American POW and in the
future as a well-cared-for zoo resident on the planet Tralfamadore (with
zaftig Valerie Perrine as his mate). In the present, he's a middle-aged
optometrist in Ilium, NY. If this sounds like a bit of a jumble -- it is.
But viewers willing to watch carefully will find the movie as intricate and
harmonious as Glenn Gould's plaintive renderings of the Bach keyboard pieces
that decorate its soundtrack. It's not essential, but fans who read the
short, poetic book will find it a treat in itself, and it will help them
appreciate Hill's genius in bringing this Children's Crusade to the
screen. In addition to Sacks, there are noteworthy performances by Ron
Leibman (Norma's union man in Norma Rae) as Pilgrim's crazed nemesis andby
radio/TV/movie legend, John Dehner as the arrogant Professor Rumfoord.
Hill, of course, came to this film from a big hit, Butch Cassidy and the
Sundance Kid, and went on to triumph with The Sting one year later. The
elaborate medieval and baroque architecture of pre-bombing Dresden was
represented authentically in the film by scenes from Prague, since much of
Dresden's architecture was lost to the bombing, and that city, in any
case, was deep in East Germany, thus inaccessible at the time of filming.
